Hi,

I just "made" world and kernel using clang, but I noticed that ld is still
using the GNU ld. The page
http://wiki.freebsd.org/BuildingFreeBSDWithClangmentions using a
different linker that supports LTO optimisation. Is that
non-GNU linker part of FreeBSD 9?

Thanks!

It's a newer gnu ld that supports plugins. The plugin handles the LTO. It might be possible to compile to bytecode, link and optimize with llvm-ld. It might still need gnu ld to create a final binary.
